It's all bone in those hips at that point. V Taper is physically impossible. Nothing he can do but be pissed at the chit hand he was dealt. Just lol at people who think anyone can achieve a good looking physique. Genetics = Everything

Still has a respectable physique and probably slays bitches with it. He wont ever win any bb competitions but neither will 95% of the population so I dont see what the big deal is.

OP, this guy has zero shoulder width, no traps and zero lat width. He just got leaner and probably lost muscle. He had less of a U taper in the first pic. If he actually bulked, he'd look way better.

He could still achieve a good physique, mirable by the gen pop, but you're right he'd never appeal to body dysmorphic online bodybuilders.
As far as your thesis goes about genetics, actually we're currently in an age where people are SO lazy mentally/physically and spiritually, that just with some effort you can stand out. Then if you repeat that effort for years on end and you work SMART instead of just hard, you can achieve things which completely dummy the gen pop mongos.

I think I have a somewhat wide pelvis like the guy in the pic (probably not as pronounced). You keep raging at people telling them a V-taper is impossible, but wouldn't he get the V-taper effect by building up his lats and shoulders? Even if he would always have a smaller outward bulge at the hips, he'd still be much more aesthetic if the chest/back appeared wider.
